The Shout

The Shout – One Hundred and seven

     Praising the Lord releases such an anointing but this next one is so powerful.  The Hebrew word for this expression is shabach which means to shout.  It was the shabach that brought down the walls of Jericho.  No demon and foe can stand before someone who shouts the name of the Lord.  It is praise that is given way before the answer even comes.  The walls came down after the shout was given.

     The shout is a declaration of faith.  When you shout before the Lord you are drowning out all doubt and noise that would contradict your faith or trust in God`s word.  There will always be the mockers, scorner, cynics and complainers but the shout drowns out their little whining sessions.  The sowers of doubt are silenced before the shout.  They are intimidated by someone who shouts before their God.  The devil hates the shout because it sounds through the heavenlies that inspite of what is going on you are going to praise the Lord. 

     When you shout before the Lord you are declaring that the Lord is alive and His word is true.  When you shout, “Praise the Lord,” you are declaring that God is worthy of all our praise.  You are saying that there is no one like our God.  Nothing and no one can defeat Him or you as you stand in His anointing, authority and power.  When you shout praise the Lord you are saying that all things will work together for good and you believe the answer is on the way. 

     So shout, Praise the Lord,” give thanks for He is alone is worthy.  Break those chains off your life, scatter the darkness, raise a shout of praise and let your whole world know the Jesus Christ is Lord.  In Him you will not be defeated.  In Him you are more than a conqueror.  You will overcome and be the victor in the Lord.  Shout and let all who know.
